Down to almost half that now. Edited July 31 by Tears of the Cows Link to post Share on other sites

lynux3 2,437 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 It was only a matter of time they sack the leadership roles and integrate into SIE leadership. 155 roles are being directly integrated into SIE and 75 roles are forming a new studio for an existing incubation project.

Long Ball Larry 1,359 Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 Why would Sony WANT Bungie leadership? The company was on its death bed and rushed to sell for additional funding. All they’ve done since being bought by PS was cause other P1 projects to get cancelled and continue to develop new content for Xbox. Link to post Share on other sites

Where you failing to comprehend? Link to post Share on other sites
FIREPOWER 919 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 (edited) LMAO, Cuckstz backfire thread. They mostly fired the higher-ups and also Sony is getting a new exclusive Bungie game out of the deal with more Bungie employees integrated into Sony. We knew this was going to happen as the clause for Sony buying Bungie was that they had the right to take over if the management fucked up, which they did. With this new arrangement only 17% of staff was fired and the remaining staff and now fully owned by Sony. Hermen Hulst is now running Bungie. The staff are also blaming the Bungie management for the layoffs instead of Sony Bungie is ultimately better off since they are now going to be fully owned and run by Sony. Hermen Hulst now controls Bungie and chances are games like Marathon will be skipping Xbox as the now control everything Bungie releases including the new action IP that is being created by the studio. 2 minutes ago, lynux3 said: Huh? The layoffs included senior leadership and execs. Where you failing to comprehend? Cuckstz is a retard. It's all over the internet that is was mostly execs that got laid off. Majority of the working staff have been allowed to remain. Edited July 31 by FIREPOWER Link to post Share on other sites

That Sony now fully owns Bungie and have laid off the incompetent management? Or the fact that they now have total exclusive rights over every future Bungie game and will now be kicking out Xbox from future Bungie games? I saw the news and I laughed out loud because every one saw this coming after the Bungie management laid off staff last year for greedy reasons. The whole internet is shitting on them right now for their shitty leadership that led to this. This is the best thing that could happen to Bungie. With the shitty old management gone, they can start actually being good again. I never liked Destiny and wanted them to move in a new direction for years now Link to post Share on other sites
